This account of Gazza's life concentrates on his exploits in Italy. Starting with Italia '90 and his mercurial performances for England, it goes on to document the shattering of his knee cap and subsequent injury in a Newcastle nightclub; the tension and intrigue surrounding his on-off transfer to Lazio and the behind-the-scenes wheeling and dealing; the ups and downs experienced while playing in Italy's Serie A; and finally what the future holds. This book exposes the dubious activities of his agent, Mel Stein, and those claiming to act in Gazza's best interests. It examines Gazza's relationship with fellow players, with first-hand profiles from close friend Glenn Roeder, ex-manager Terry Venables, former team-mate Gary Lineker and current Lazio coach, Dino Zoff.
